I actually really enjoyed it, the first one didn't do it for me so this was a much better second half. It didn't drag on too long and was quite true to the story. I think the Snape scene could have last a wee bit longer. There wasn't much of Malfoy in it and it did seem abit rushed towards the end. All in all a very good finish (especially considering how shit some of the other films turned out to be). 8/10

I watched it in Leicester Square, Odeon today but boy that screen was tiny and the seats so low. I had to sit on top of my legs to raise it abit for me and the screen was so high up that I had to really look up. I would never p*y £16 for a ticket there!

There was about another ten (mostly well behaved people) sitting there. I was quite shocked, I thought I would be one of the only ones. I thought MariaLionza was in front of me (but she's on holiday so definitely not her) but the two women in front kept talking through out the trailers. I was ready to take my shoe off and whack them on the head if it continued throughout the movie.

Yeah this one was a very good one compared to some of the previous ones. When i watched it there were about 6/7 people spread out so it was a very quiet which was great.

[spoiler]I did wish there was more of Snape and Malfoy too, well to be honest i would have preferred them to follow the book exactly as it was but obviously that can't happen. The scene where snape dies though is so ... 8O :noo: :crying:[/spoiler]

I'm pretty sure by the time i'm free and can see it again, it won't be in cinemas anymore, or i would have used up my vouchers by then. But i am going to try to see it again hopefully.

Well the Order of the Phoenix was completely off track if I remember well so this was much better.

It's in it's last week of showing so probably not. It was taken off the cinema for a while then put back on show for a few weeks so you got to make it quick. It was showing at Greenwich last week but I checked today before I left and that's why went to Leicester Square. Of course, Greenwich would have been far better (and a much more bigger screen!).

I was playing around with Pottermore the other day and reached the stage where I am sorted into a house for life...felt really nervous! I felt like Harry muttering to myself "not slytherin not slytherin" as apparantly the numbers in each house are quite balanced. The questions were very interesting.

I am a Ravenclaw :) Very happy once the prefect described the virtues of a Ravenclaw. Then it was off to potion classes, needs a little effort to master making potions but its fun. The website evolves nicely as you progress. But its still have many teething problems to sort out hece why I believe that have pushed back the public registrations for several weeks.
